Hello,
Can anyone possibly provide me a link to a complete cooling system diagram for an '89 525i. I have a few diagrams but they are incomplete pictures of thermostat housing and an incomplete diagram of the water valve assembly. Specifically, I am trying to find out exactly where the hose goes that comes from the back of the cylinder head and the hose the comes just off the intake side of the cylinder head twards the rear of the engine. I would really appreciate any help you could provide.

Thank you for the link. My local BMW dealer printed me out a few pics just like the ones in the link. The only issue I have is that there are several hoses that just trail off out of the pictures and I don't know were they go. I am trying to figure out where the hose comes from that goes to the inlet side of the aux. water pump and where the return line from the heater cores is supposed to be connected. Thank you for your time.

Here's the hose at the back of the cylinder head. It goes to the base of the heater valves.

Here's where the little hose on the intake side starts:

It winds up here, normally connected to the water jacket on the throttle body. On mine, I bypassed the throttle body water jacket because it was irreparably leaky.
